Fireworks: the new way to impress the opposite sex

Sunday, 30. December 2007, 16:29:36

The Swedish company Svea Fireworks is introducing a brand new idea for the 2007 New Year's Eve parties: You should buy their fireworks because you'll impress the girls.

You won't just impress them, actually, you'll "turn them on"...

In the ad to the right, they say: "Girls will [fully] get off with fireworks from Svea".



As an example of their niche marketing, they've also included a product to fit my username: El Toro, the Chinese bull...

Ha-ha :wink:

Nice idea, but I think, what the fireworks are more interesting for kids, not for potential girlfriends. If you really want surprising her - use the brilliants :wink:

I think some flowers would do too :wink:

Oh, of course :wink:

And I hope, what the flowers are more preferable than brilliants :wink:

Exactly, keep it simple: buy flowers... :smile:

I came back from Sweden today. "The weekend has landed. I got 50 quids in my back burner", and fireworks from Svea. "I guess nothing can stop me tonight. The Milky bars are on me."

No, seriously. I didn't see this ad over there. The translation must be off, or the Swedes must be playing another trick on us p:

  • The Lotus Notes hating just goes on… and on

    I’ve written before (here and of course in the Gdn Tech section) about the amazing outpouring of hate that comes from users whenever you mention Lotus Notes. And here it is again.. We’ve been pretty much told that when the Guardian moves to King’s Place, as it will from September or so, that we’ll b ...

  • Ken Livingstone not exactly going gentle into, wel ...

    One forgets what a consumate politician Ken Livingstone is - meaning that he has that fantastic ability, when he speaks, of persuading you (just for those moments) that anyone who holds the opposite position is a complete and utter idiot. Wonderful to be reminded on Dave Hill’s blog watching the Gre ...

    David Mitchell wrote the second of two terrific sports comment articles for the Guardian on Friday (could be he’s going to do more, certainly hope so). In I want a long rest from a game that never sleeps, he notes that Despite the fact that no matches are being played, football still dominates the p ...

    Wow. Roger Highfield, who has been at the Daily Telegraph for 22 years, is leaving to edit New Scientist (for which I still have a lot of residual affection, having written for it during one of my years of freelancing, and worked there from 1992-95). NS is a great mag: it’s one of four that I [...]

    One of the enduring tales about “what readers want” in newspapers is that they want the astrology columns - take them out and people will either complain, or silently switch to another paper - and that they do respond to the “psychic help line” adverts (otherwise, why are there so many of them in pa ...
